So this is what we’re doing now? If you morons would take a second to get past the horrific spelling and burnt out reasoning you would see derek is a modern day Jacques Derrida. The fact that you clowns can’t get past the surface to see this glowing beacon of enlightenment is the definition of irony.

this sounds fake. Hmmm…I don’t know… it’s too much to think that a guy like Derek’s ever heard of “Carpe Diem” or the oil spill. He doesn’t sound stupid, he sounds like a smart guy trying to dumb down for attention

Haha much as I would love to believe this is real, I think it’s fake: “we talk for like 3 hours about the oil spill and all the oil that spilt”. Then again, as everyone has pointed out, ’tis a beautiful thing.
Carpay deum. A classic.

People who are high just think they are having really great amazing conversations, but they aren’t. I used to have a roommate who would get high and he would spend hours talking to me about the dumbest stuff.

“You know the water is like home for the fish and stuff and like oil must be bad man.”

“Yeah we need to save the marine life or something.”

“Good point, we could have never learned that in school. Glad we have this pot.”

mcowles, I only mentioned Idiocracy because this post made me think of it, most however don’t. If it will further your “theory” I can post “Idiocracy, here we come!” on each posting of some poor dumb fool.

Maybe I’m just cranky today, I apologize, if so. At least the comment section is flooded with “Derek should be sterilized!” and “Parents should have to get a license, you need one to drive a car!” and “Derek should be decapitated to spare the gene pool of his spawn later on!”.

@mcowles
Yeah, I don’t doubt that someone else will mention it.
Naw, You’re alright, didn’t think you were cranky at all, you were simply stating your opinion same as I was doing. Now those are the thoughts I have on the majority of the wonderful postings on Lamebook, or similar thoughts anyway.

I like to think the opposite way. Instead of stupid people being forced to stop procreating, I envision a world in which the government ranks the attractiveness and intellect of its citizens and then forces the top 1% of the popular to have at least 10 children each.

The numbers can be tweaks so as not to dilute the gene pool, but to slowly start increase the nation’s average IQ.

Derek should be a salesman… because that pitch just totally worked. All this time I thought that drugs turned your brain to mush… what was I thinking? Who knew that this was the key to intelligence? Shame on us for thinking Derek shouldn’t make his own decishon, << if I'm not mistaking I do believe that meant decision. I think Derek is just too smart for his own good in that he has absolutely no need for spell check.

So many gems. Although I was quite fond of making you own deshions. I just can’t even fathom how one could even think this was remotely close to the correct spelling.
But whatever. Say lar-vee! That’s Russian for “It’s all cool man.”
I’m out.

Those garbled illiterate, illegible ramblings, intended to be so or not, make more sense and incorporate convincing logic than any counter argument I have heard, or found.

Assuming that this is honestly someone attempting to express themselves then the fact that ‘Derek’ has been able to realize his human rights where so many others have not, indicates to me that he is in fact at least fairly intelligent. As for education… well dealing drugs in school probably wasn’t the most thought out idea he’s ever conceived.

all drugs should be legal, think of all the money this country would save if they were, think of how much it would help the economy, i’m just saying….cuz a crackhead is going to smoke crack no matter what, people who smoke pot are going to find a way to do it no matter what, it’s not like if they made all drugs legal there would be a dramatic change in users and non-users. but, that’s just me..and i’m high.

LOL! Well said Wonderbread, I have no fault in your logic. I actually plan to quit smoking everything this year on my birthday. Running makes it feel like I’m breathing through cotton. I’m gonna start eating it instead. And, FYI most of the braincells lost from smoking cannabis are from the smoking, depriving you brain of oxygen and poisoning your body with carbon monoxide created in the burning process. There is no hard evidence to support that the drug delta-9-THC actually has any permanent adverse effects on the human body. It’s the standard method of smoking that causes many of the health problems associated with cannabis. However, contrary to some propaganda I saw somewhere, cannabis has NEVER caused cancer in any way.

I’m with you, Crazy H. But who knows, it’s a good possibility that a good number of groups may put out things like this to make such views look ignorant or ‘stupid’. He just needs to pay better attention in English.

I love the counter-narcotics arguments as well. “Drugs are Bad.”
And then launch to “everyone is stupid but us, so we have to tell everyone what to do!”

I think we should just divide the country in half: Those who believe themselves as rational, thinking people who wish to make their own decisions, on the left. Those who need someone or something to tell them how to live, on the right. Notice I did not use a reference point. Because I don’t care. Pick states. Pick counties. Pick cities. I don’t care, just stop telling me how to lead my life.

People are going to do what they want to do. Don’t waste money trying to stop them. Don’t waste the time. There’s people out there asking for help, stop locking up the people who aren’t bothering anyone.

If a drug addict robs someone, put them in jail for robbery. If they kill someone, they stay longer. Make jails produce something, make any able prisoners work and repay what they stole, or provide for reparations to relatives of victims. But stop locking people up for buying, selling, possessing, or using a product that some groups say “needs to be controlled.”

I’m pretty confident derek was a dumbass before he ever touched drugs. I hate when people like that talk about legalizing drugs. Just like I’m sure republicans hate it when tea partiers talk about anything.

He could barely speak English, what’s he doing trying to speak “spanish” (latin)? And sadly I must say I disagree with everyone who said he’s got a good point. I’m pretty certain it’s illegal because when you smoke it’s not just YOU that you’re affecting. Plus there’s more risk involved with drugs etc. Personally I don’t care that it’s illegal, you can all still get it anyway, right? Makes it that much more fun because you’re not supposed to be doing it. Oh dear, I entered the debate. Don’t kill me.

That last looks like a smart person making fun of idiots. I know a time or two I’ve posted “mAn I rEaLlY l0v3 iT WhEn p33pS TaLk lIkE tHiS”, and had people not get the sarcasm at all. It would help if we saw this person’s whole profile, to see if they talk like this all the time.

Ummm where do I start? The fact that this idiot makes himself look like an idiot because he is defending drugs and can’t spell worth a damn, nor does he speak English. Drugs have been go cookoo cachoo!! Derek, you might want to put down the drugs and pay attention more in school!!! Oh and by the way, it’s CARPE DIEM and it’s NOT Spanish you loon, it’s Latin and stands for SEIZE THE DAY! Talk about that on your next high!

So I’ve been thinking about this for quite some time, and it is my believe that the use of drugs should not be something that is punishable by law. My reasoning behind this is that we are all adults with a capacity to make our own decisions as to what is or is not good for us, and to what degree. As most of you know, I was arrested for selling cannabis at school, which I think is ridiculous. If there is a demand for substances such as alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, LSD, etc, we should be able to procure them for personal use. The common wisdom is that if you are a drug user, you are inherently ‘bad’.

I, however, personally know many people who are upstanding citizens as well as people who self-medicate habitually or use controlled substances for recreational purposes from time to time. Another bit of what is apparently common wisdom we’re all familiar with is that the use of drugs will automatically made you slower, dimmer, duller, or less intelligent; this, of course, is forgetting entirely the multiple breakthroughs thought of or discussed while under the influence of various chemicals. Just over a half decade ago, my boy Francis Crick, the Nobel Prize recipient, discovered the double helix structure of DNA while experiencing the wonders of LSD. They now teach you about that in school.

Also, music! People don’t even think about how much musical expression would simply not exist if it weren’t for the various chemicals which created inspiring head-spaces for so many artists. So, the next time your favorite song comes on, ask yourself, “Just how high were these guys when they wrote this, and would it be here if they had opted for orange juice instead?” I know this is getting long, and you are probably tired of reading it, so I’ll leave you with this parting thought: The responsible, and even irresponsible use and abuse of drugs, have lead to many good things. There is a saying that I live by.

to the ones that actually think that this kid has a valid point… The way that I see it is this, If you want to smoke whatever you want, then have at it. Weed is the least of my concerns. I don’t do it, but I am not necessarily against legalizing it. The effects from marijuana are nothing compared to the effects of the harsher drugs out there. Sadly 98% of the addicts that I know of don’t work… Who do you think is supporting them? Yes, myself and any other person that works for a living. In fact, when the pills attack their liver and the hepatitis sets in, as well as the strokes that can occur from crack use and cocaine use, WE working people will also support their medical care. Who will pay for their drug addicted babies? Who is feeding them so that they can buy their next fix? WE WILL.. we will pay for their treatment, their transplants, their methadone etc.. That being said, the kid is a complete moron. He had no point. He is just plain stupid.

@denise- people that pay for drugs for addicts are called enablers. I myself am a rcovering addict, and yes, i didn’t work but my family most definitely did NOT pay for my addiction, or my treatment. Some people get sick on drugs, with their addictions, before they even realize it. And i am sure over half don’t even have family to ask for money for drugs. I have yet to support a drug addict in anyway since my own recovery and think that everyone has a choice in doing something so stupid. My family made the right choice by leaving me out in the cold. i was lucky for that. but most people don’t have that. they ether have no family to not care about them, or they have idiot family like you, who enables them. weed should be legalized, and i’m glad you are mature enough to admit what most non-smoking americans cannot, that it just isnt bad
